Moving and handling of children with physical difficulties - Refresher (in-person)

In-person theory and practical moving and handling refresher training (for those people who have previously undertaken the moving and handling initial training - must have been within the past 12-18 months though or full initial training will be required again).

Suitable for any staff working with a child or young person who has physical/movement difficulties (not suitable for those working with children who have emotional or behavioural difficulties requiring physical interventions.)

Please do let us know in advance if hoist training is required.

PLEASE NOTE
To allow free unrestricted movement please wear loose comfortable clothing and flat enclosed non slip-shoes, trainers are ideal.

Please bring up to date examples of handling plans and risk assessments.
